UNDERSTAND IT. UNBLOCK IT. CHANGE IT.

SIDECAR IS A SMALL, EXPERIENCED TECHNOLOGY CONSULTANCY

WHAT WE DO

Appropriate solutions to problems, not monuments to cleverness. Sidecar steps in when important technology problems need experienced people who know where to look. We understand what’s really going on, identify what’s holding things back, then bring in the right people to make change happen. The engagement fits the problem - not the other way around.

HOW WE WORK

We help organisations get difficult technology problems moving.

We start by understanding what's really going on. Then we work alongside existing teams, bringing in the right specialist experience where it's needed to help deliver the change.

TECHNOLOGY

Sidecar works across technology, people and process to understand what's happening, where any problems sit and what needs to change or be improved. Sometimes that means technology, sometimes people and sometimes process - but always understanding how they interconnect.
ARCHITECTURE & INFRASTRUCTURE

Sidecar brings deep experience across technology architecture and infrastructure, from newer platforms to legacy systems that are still in use. We help understand what is there, how it fits together, identify the constraints and work out what needs to change - and what doesn't.
AI

We help organisations understand where AI can genuinely add value and efficiencies, how it sits alongside existing technology, people and processes, and where experienced human judgement still matters. Using AI effectively requires judgement and experience, not simply access to the tools.
TECHNOLOGY DUE DILIGENCE

Sidecar helps organisations understand the technology they're buying, inheriting or integrating. Does it work? Can it be maintained? Is the knowledge there to support it? How will it fit with what you already have? What will integration look like? We look across the technology, people and processes to understand what's there before important decisions are made.
TEAMS & SPECIALIST INTERVENTION

Sidecar is deliberately small, backed by a trusted network of experienced technology specialists. We understand the problem first, then bring together the right people for what is required, from helping solve a specific problem to working alongside an existing team for as long as needed.

The problem determines the people. Not the other way around.

TX Odds

Sidecar helped TX Odds with integrations, bringing in additional capability so that its engineering team could remain focused on the core platform, rather than being pulled into every integration requirement.

Sidecar was brought in to help with technology performance bottlenecks that were preventing progress. Over roughly a month, the team worked to understand where the problems were and help unblock them.

Sphonic has been discussed as an example of Sidecar's work, but we don't yet have enough detail to describe the engagement properly.

Irrigate & Thrive

Sidecar is currently working with Irrigate & Thrive on a pro-bono basis, exploring how AI and technology could be applied practically within the business to improve efficiency, including areas such as surveying, estimating, quoting and design. The interesting question is not simply where AI can be used, but where it can genuinely reduce expensive manual work and help the business respond to customers more effectively.
TXP

Sidecar has experience looking beneath the surface of technology businesses and systems as part of due-diligence work, understanding the technology, people and processes involved and identifying what is really there before important decisions are made.
